terī rahmat ke sahāre tire paale hue log
shahr-e-be-mehr meñ sāzish ke havāle hue log
tujh ko is baat kā andāza nahīñ ho saktā
kaise jiite haiñ tire dil se nikāle hue log
sab ne māñgā thā jise us ko nahīñ māñgā thā
aur māñgā thā jise us ke izāle hue log
isī dariyā pe udāsī kā badan chūmte haiñ
āḳhir-e-shab tire darvāze se Taale hue log
āsmānoñ meñ uḌā karte the itrāte the
ek ik karke zamīnoñ ke nivāle hue log
dukh banāte haiñ banā kar mire paas aate haiñ
apne purkhoñ kī rivāyāt sañbhāle hue log
rāt-din dard kī dahlīz pe āte-jāte
jiite jī maut kī chaukhaT ke havāle hue log
teri rahmat ke sahaare tere pale hue log
shahr-e-be-mehr mein sazish ke hawale hue log
tujh ko is baat ka andaza nahin ho sakta
kaise jite hain tere dil se nikale hue log
sab ne manga tha jise us ko nahin manga tha
aur manga tha jise us ke izale hue log
isi dariya pe udasi ka badan chumte hain
aaKHir-e-shab tere darwaze se Tale hue log
aasmanon mein uDa karte the itraate the
ek ek karke zaminon ke niwale hue log
dukh banate hain bana kar mere pas aate hain
apne purkhon ki riwayat sanbhaale hue log
raat-din dard ki dahliz pe aate-jate
jite ji maut ki chaukhaT ke hawale hue log
